Gyokuro is a special type of green tea shaded from the sun for 20 days with specially made mats which allows the caffeine levels to increase in the leaves, in addition to allowing the amino acids to get stronger, producing a sweeter and stronger flavor. Because of the cultivation process, the leaves have a very particular odor that is impossible to confuse.

Since the leaves are covered for such a long period of time throughout the cultivation process, the tea leaves are dark, creating a dark tea that is almost a mossy green. Its richness in color translates to a richness in taste, as well, with layers of flavors that never overpower one another.

The Gyokuro plant is shaded from the sun for 20 days with especially made straw mats, which allows the caffeine levels to increase in the leaves, as well as allowing the ammino acids to get stronger, producing a sweeter and stronger flavor. Because of the cultivation process, the leaves have a very particular odor that is impossible to confuse.

BENEFITS OF COVERING/Shading

Due to the special net covering sun light, the tea leaves increase chlorophyll, making the color of the tea to be darker green; tea made from such leaves create beautiful emerald green color which are rare to see in other type of green tea

Theanine (element of umami) increases by this approach making the tea less bitter and mellow taste similar to elegant taste of Gyokuro tea.

Our green tea farms, the Arahataen Green Tea Farms, are geographically and advantageously located in the Shizuoka prefecture in Japan, known for growing the finest of teas. This region has been the center of green tea culture in Japan for centuries. The difference in temperatures on the plateaus during night and day in this region is considered to be one of the main contributory factors to the richness in flavor of green tea. The fog and weather patterns are also considered to play an important role for the highest quality green tea plants.
